Enhanced Radiation at Aviation Altitudes and Plasmaspheric Hiss Waves—A Time Shift Analysis
Abstract Increased radiation levels in Earth's atmosphere can present significant risks to airline pilots, passengers, and commercial space travelers. Recent findings have revealed a strong statistical link between radiation dose rates detected at aviation altitudes (>9 ${ >} 9$km) and plasmaspheric hiss wave power observed along the same magnetic ...

Occurrence Rates and Variability of Whistler‐Mode Waves in the Plasma Trough
Abstract Numerical models of energetic electron behavior in the outer radiation belt require descriptions of the wave‐particle interactions across the inner magnetosphere. Quasilinear diffusion coefficients describe gyro‐resonant wave‐particle interactions over large time‐ and length‐scales but these must be constrained by observations to construct ...

Evidence for a Natural Limit to Electron Space Radiation: An Application of Benford's Law
Abstract Recent research has highlighted observational evidence for a natural limit to the severity of energetic electron differential fluxes in the Van Allen radiation belts. Here, we analyze the occurrence distributions of electron differential fluxes from the entire Van Allen Probes mission (2012–2019) to further investigate the energy dependence of

Low Plasma Density Estimation Based on Measurements of Electron Cyclotron Harmonic Waves
Abstract The electron plasma frequency to cyclotron frequency ratio is a crucial parameter for accurately evaluating local chorus wave‐driven electron acceleration and loss in the inner magnetosphere. In the present work, we propose a method for inferring the plasma frequency from near‐equatorial measurements of electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves ...

Abstract Gravity waves (GWs) make crucial contributions to the middle atmospheric circulation. Yet, their climate model representation remains inaccurate, leading to key circulation biases. This study introduces a set of three neural networks (NNs) that learn to predict GW fluxes (GWFs) from multiple years of high‐resolution ERA5 reanalysis.
